Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve | Big wood, with a hint of acetate on two samples. Nicely ripe grapes for the vintage, creamy texture, more sensual than the norm for St-Julien, but future still a bit uncertain. | 16

Michael Schuster | Fresh, lively, mineral, and light, ripe-fruited wine of modest scope and light length, accessible soon, but will keep nicely, too. 2017–25. | 15
